An Infant That Hay Tct Succeed to
the British Throne. .
THE DUCHESS OP FIFE'S BABY
Is the First Heir of Purely English Blood
in Centuries,
WHICH IS ESPECIALLY GEaTCFUNG
CUT DUJCLAP'g CABLE COMPANT.J
Loscdow, May IS. The birth of'tho daugh
ter of Duke and Duchess of Fife has excited
the very greatest national interest. Some
degree of importance attached to the occa
sion is shown by the fact that no less im
portant a member of the Cabinet than the
lit. Hon. Mr. Matthews, the Home Secretary,
was present in his official capacity Ip order
to be able to certify to the birth of the
child.
A point on which general comment lias
been made since yesterday morning is that,
as the Princes of Wales' two sons the Duke
of Clarence and Prince George of Wales, are
still unmarried, this infant is, after them
and the Duchess of .Fife, the nearest heir to
the British crown. The Duke of Clarence's
health, it is well known, is poor, and Prince
George, being a sailor, may at any time meet
with one of those accidents for which the
nary is so celebrated, and therefore the baby
which was born yesterday may yet be Queen
of England. The Times, in commenting this
morning on the subject, says:
"When we remember the train of circum
stances which lead to the succession as heir
presumptive of the Princess Charlotte and
to the actual succession of her present
Majesty, it is manifest that no great de
parture from the ordinary course of things
is involved in the supposition that the
daughter of the Duke of Fife may one day
reign over England. What the English
especially like is that there is now anheir
n ho has English blood in its veins and not
German. The baby is the only pure English
in the royal family, and this baby wlilliold
a remarkable position, which has not been
held by any legitimate grandchild of an
English sovereign for hundred of years.
Her rank, unless altered by the Queen, will
be simply the daughter of a duke, and as
such her title will be lady and nt princess."
All the other papers have leaders with re
gard to the importance of the birth of this
child.
SUFFOCATED BY LOCUSTS.
Myriads of the Insects Fall Upon a Natur

tBT DCXLAT'S CABLE COMPAXT.J
Pakis, May 18. The details of the sad end
of M. Ilunckel D. Herculals, the well-known
French naturalist, have Just been received
trom Algiers. It appears that the unfortu
nate gentleman had been staying at the mis
sion, Teniet-et-Xaad, and had gone to Donar
Side Eralto collect eggs. Being overcome
by the heat he fell asleep upon a pile of
brushwood. During his slumber myriads of
locusts fell upon, him When he awoke his
bodv was cjmV '.telr covered.
He was fortunately awakened by them be
fore it was too late, and beat "down and
killed thousands by firing the brushwood,
making a minute of the fact in his note
book, but his enemies proved too numerous
for him. It is supposed that they finally
suffocated him, as Ills skeleton was subse
quently found under a heap of locusts, to
gether with his beard, hair and cravat.

covered with snow this morning and much

hard frost has prevailed, and the ponds and

ice is a quarter of an inch thick, whereby
much damage i done to trio fruit and garden

They Fire on a Crowd of Poor SHesians for
Illegally Buying Flonr.
tBT DUSLAP'S CABLE COMPANY.
Berlin, May 18. A free trade organ states
that the Prussian frontier guards fired into
a croid of women and children near
Neurode, 40 miles f rom Breslau, Silesia, who,
having bought flour in Bohemia, where it is
cheaper, were on their way home. It seems
that Pruvsian law allows a certain amount
of loroigu flour to be imported free: but tho
guards suspected that more than the legal
amount was being brought over the border,
on account of its being wanted for use
during the Whitsuntide holidays.
This suspicion was strengthened by the
notion of the w omen, w ho refused to allow
the packages to be examined. The guards
then, without making any further effort to
settle tho matter bloodlessly, fired into tho
crowd of returning purchasers, killing one
girl and seriously w ounding two boys.

here. In repairing the loof of the Monastery
of San Antonio, near Rieti, a quantity of
manuscripts ana sou printed books were
found. The discovery was communicated
to the Minister of Public Instruction, and
careful examination confirmed the impor
tance of tho find. Tho manuscripts are GO in
number and belong to the tenth, eleventh,
thirteenth and fourteenth centuries.
Somo of tlienl are of great paleographic
value; others are magnificently illuminated
and treat mostly ot theological and patriotic
subjects and of civil and canonical juris

throw a great deal of light on many subjects
that have hitherto been wrapped in mystery.

PAINTER'S FAIRY STORY.
HOW HE MADE A GOLD DOIXAK SHOW
THBEE TIMES ITS VALUE.
r
Baltimore History of the Man Who Is Sup
posed to Have Swindled Many Prominent
Englishmen The Way He Took in Sev
eral Business Men.
Baltimore, May IS. Edward Painter, alias
"Shecney Al," who was arrested in London
for attempting to swindle a Jeweler in that
city by means of the "Philadelphia stone,"
through which ho claimed to increase the
bulk of gold, is supposed to be the fellow
who played the same gamo in Baltimore,
swindling live well-to-do merchants out of
$100,000.
About five years ago a. man came to Balti
more and engaged a suite of rooms in a
boarding house on North Charles street.
He called at the office of a real estato agent
named Brigham and introduced himself as
Mr. Gophart. He said that the agent had
been recommended to him as a discreet and
enterprising man, and he desired to secure
his aid in developing a matter that would
surely bring fortune to both of them, ne
then unfolded his scheme of increasing the
bulk of gold, and assured the agent that he
did not wish him to invest a dollar until all
doubt had been removed from his mind of
tho ability of Gcphart to do all ho claimed.
He invited the agent to call at his rooms on
Charles street, when ho would substantiate
his claim by practical tests. Tho agent ac
companied him and gave Gcphart a gold
dollar with which to make tho first experi
ment. This dollar was placed in a small crucible,
and a white powder was added by Gcphart.
The two men took turns (nt a blowpipe, in
creasing the heat in the crucible until the
gold was melted and mixed with the chemi
cal. It was then allowed to cool.after which
Gcphart took it out and gave it to tho agent
and told him to send it to the United States
Mint to be assayed and recoincd. Tho mint
officials returned a report showing three
times the amount of gold that was put into
the crucible. The same tests with larger
amounts were continued nnd always with
the same result. Tho result was that Brig
ham was convinced of the value of Gcphart's
secret and introduced Gepliart to several
wealthy citizens with the view of enlisting
them in the enterprise. The same tests were
made before them and they too became con
vinced of Gephart's ability to increase the
bulk of gold.
A stock company was formed, and the
basement of, the house of one of the men in
terested waB selected as the place of opera
tion. This was fitted up with a furnace and
iron vats about the size of an ordinary bath
tub. One of the gold increasing company
furnished about $50,000 in gold, nnd tho other
four about $10,000 each. Thevwereto share
proportionately in the profits. In the pres-J
ence oi tne wnoie party uepuart apparently
put all this gold into one of the vats and
placed it on the fire. He then put in a
Quantity of the powder and other chemicals.
n doing this, however, he declined to per
mit any of tho party to approach the vat,
saying that the fumes of the chemicals would
overpower anyone not prepared to resist
them. A top was put on the vat, and at the
suggestion of Gephart extra stiomj. locks
were fastened on the vats. Tho same pre
cautions were taken with the door of tho
basement. The keys were given to the gen
tleman in whose nouse the experiment
was being tried. Gephart said that tho vats
must notbe opened for three weeks.
After remaining about the city for several
days Gephart said ho was called to a distant
city on business, but would return on the
day appointed for taking out the gold. He
did not come as nroinised. The real estate
agent became suspicious and persuaded the
party to make an investigation. They went
to tho cellar and upon opening the vat found
the gold had all disappeared, whils in its
place was a lot of rocks and scrap iron. The
me a were dumbfounded. Tho cellar had
been entered surreptitiously and the gold
removed.

A WONDERFUL CUBE.
Wm. Tan Houten Badly Injures His Ankle
and Is Pronounced Incurable by Many
Doctors Entirely Cured at the Electrical
and Medical Institute.
Wm. Van Houten is an intelligent Hol
lander, living at No. 80 Worden street. A
year ago last fall lie fell from a roof and
sprained and badly smashed his right ankle.
The Injury -was a very painful one at the
time, but it was not thouirnt to be Terr seri
ous. Time passed on and the sprain proved.
very ooscinate, aeiying tne dcsc nieaicai
skill in the city. Doctor after doctor was
tried, but without avail. Resort was had to
liniments and all the lotions known for
treatment of this class of ailments, but they
didnogood. Mr. Van Houteubecamevery de
spondent arid concluded that hemustremain
a cripple for life. Being a poor man having
a large family he felt compelled to work, in
consequence of whici ho passed night after
night of the most excruciating agony. Doing
such work as unloading carloads of wood,
he was compelled to drag his injured foot
after him, there not being strength in his
ankle to support his weight. Last January
his friendB began to advise him to go to the
Electrical and Medical Institute, whom they
had heard had made some wonderful cures.
Mr. Van Houten was skeptical and thought
that all had been done for him that was pos
sible, but on January 5, 1891, yielding to the
iroportunities of his friends, he went to tho
Institute 'on Ionia street and began a course
of electrical treatment. From the moment
he began dates his iniprovement.andyester
day, In an Interview with an Eagle repre
sentative, Mr. Van Houten stated that his
ankle was neirly wellj that he suffered no
more pain, and that they had done wonders
for him. Mr. Van Houten told the above
story to the Eagle man with a sincere air
that was convincing, and its truth cannot be
doubted. Ho is naturally very grateful and
urges all sufferers to consult with them. Mr.
Van Houten can be found at the citv wood
